But how can men be men if they drive that pussy little thing? Only 23 kWh and 70 bhp? I bet it couldn't even hold up my truck nuts. /s

Not a Spring or even an EV, but my Sandero pushes out 70hp and it's a fantastic car. One litre of pure rage and agricultural gearbox.

I'm a big Dacia fan. I'd deffo buy a Spring if I could.

At the moment though living semi-rurally, there isn't really the financial incentive or contingency planning available for having both cars as EVs otherwise I'd be all over the Spring.

I’m a big Dacia fan.

This is a Dacia badged Dongfeng EV. Affectionately known as the Little Dong.

I don't need to compensate. I like small cars - they are so much more agile on the road. I don't need more power - it doesn't take much skill to make up for low horsepower, and again I don't need to prove anything with my car.

It appears that the Dacia Spring is now the cheapest new car in germany. Most small cars currently have their base price at approx. 15.000€, and the Dacia Spring is available for 11.900€.
